payroll software's burden calculations:
don't add 1 to burden-- labor costs are then too low
don't include burden at all-- labor costs are all zero
do they have to put worker's comp in burden AND in the worker's comp column? Yes. Add it to burden (for job
costing) AND put it into worker's comp column (to compute actual comp cost).
note: there's a writeup about burden in newsletter #12
